Twistin' in the Wind |
Now Washington, DC’s |
A funny little town |
The further you look into it |
The further things stick out |
You oughta be ashamed |
You oughta be destroyed |
I’ll chop you into little bits |
And feed you to my dogs |
Well well well well well |
What have we got here? |
What have we got now? |
Hey hey hey hey hey |
Twistin' in the wind |
Twistin' all night long |
Now can you picture this? |
A taste of what will be |
The weatherman is wrong again |
It looks like rain to me |
I heard the whistle blow |
The train has jumped the track |
The mighty engine’s outa gas |
Bureaucratic heart attack |
My sister likes the boys |
They kinda like her, too |
My mama says, «Be careful» |
Sister says, «Now, that ain’t cool» |
My daddy fell in love |
Down at the factory |
And me, I like to sit around |
Get high, and watch TV |
Well well well well well |
What have we got here? |
What have we got now? |
Hey hey hey hey hey |
Twistin' in the wind |
Twistin' all night long |
Now I can take a joke |
I’m laughin' at myself |
I faked my way through college |
And I faked my way through sex |
I’ve been falling down too long |
I’ve been bangin' up my head |
And if I could stay on my feet |
I’d prob’ly go right back again |
Now Harry’s got a gun |
And he just turned fourteen |
He dresses like a gangster |
And he’s livin' on the street |
They kicked him in the balls |
They shaved off all his hair |
They put a current through his head |
And left him lyin' there |
Well well well well well |
What have we got here? |
What have we got now? |
Hey hey hey hey hey |
Twistin' in the wind |
Twistin' all night long |
They say that crime don’t pay |
The judge does not agree |
'Cause if you got the money |
He will surely set you free |
I’ll watch you burn in hell |
I’ll see you in your grave |
I’d like to watch you suffer for |
The evil that you made |
Hi-dee hi-dee ho |
What a funny clown |
The fat man he fell off the wall |
And he can’t get up again |
It’s time to say goodbye |
It’s time to say goodnight |
Whoever is the last one out |
Well, please turn out the light |
